Starview HD Combo + (Lan) scrambled channels

[PaulWNewman]

Hi Guys,

I'm running a Starview HD Combo + at the moment. It worked fine until about 3/4 days ago when all the channels became scrambled.

I've done a complete reset and reinstalled the Grooverider 1214 file, and all I get is the normal channels, no unscrambled ones such as Sky Sports, Sky Movies etc etc

Any ideas what could be going wrong?

Thanks in advance

[SILLY_BILLY]

It could well be Nagra 3
Which area you at?

[PaulWNewman]

that's what I assumed it would be, I'm South West London

Is the box connected if not have you entered 789789 when on accessory then go into csnet and turn ustream on.

[ady92]

hello iv got mine online and seemed to stumble on this way myself all channels except hd can live without

[junger]

Chuckles 53-Are you sure about the access number?

[chuckles53]

sorry its just 789 on accessory and key edit should appear above network,go into network and it will say csnet at the bottom go into that and turn it on to ustream,think you have to do a channel scan before you press 789.Hope this helps.

[chuckles53]

sorry got it wrong the number to punch in is 8989 not 789789.

[PaulWNewman]

so am I understanding this correctly by saying that if I have a Starview HD Combo box and live in London with a cable connection it is completely useless to me? Is there nothing that can be done to revive it?

Er?Paul just read up mate seriously!,you cannot have these boxes and not learn about them.download the carling image(in the downloads section) and stick that on it.:bandit:

[PaulWNewman]

Hi Mortal,

Done this already mate, still no luck with the box...

[PaulWNewman]

Also, my friend has a box in the same area which works fine when updated with Carling, and he would like to know if there is any reason why he can get BBC HD and MTV HD, but not any of the Sky Sports or Sky Movies HD, and weirdly ITV1 HD and E4 HD (both freeview channels) any ideas?

those channels are somehow not on the starview server, and nobody knows when or if they will ever be added.

not just for a bit, mate, for a long long time....

[jp2002parry]

hi mine is all on no worries just read the instructions on here

[christhompson44]

got to agree, i have starview hd combo+ and it's nothing but bother. thinking of going the sat way!

[maney266]

If your thinking of going the sat way sell this box NOW and get a dreambox 800HD. This box has lots of problems on satellite such as EPG problems, however on the dreambox you can actually download sky's epg data from their epg channels so you can get epg for the whole week. There are so many plug ins for dreambox like media center plug in.

I knew reading your posts would solve my question before I started annoying you all with newbie idiocy!Thanks,

[shearer9uk]

just have a dish pointing to astra 28.2 & then do some research on CS CCam i guess yeah. Im getting sick of this ****ing shitviewHDcombo :boring:

[PaulWNewman]

managed to fix the box which worked for a while (after everyones helpful suggestions)

After about a month (late october) it stopped working again. Just wondering if this would be because of the change in encryption used by the cable providers, and if there is any new software I can update the box with to get back functionality.

Thanks very much
